We Allow Psychologists To Focus On Patient Care
Psychology may differ from other medical fields, but it still faces the challenges of medical billing and coding. Utopia Medical Billing offers comprehensive revenue cycle management (RCM), including processing claims and handling rejections and denials. As a dedicated psychology billing company, we significantly reduce administrative burdens, allowing psychologists to concentrate on providing excellent patient care.
RCM Can Be Entirely Outsourced To One Provider
It may be surprising, but RCM can be fully outsourced to a single provider. Utopia Medical Billing’s innovative software and all-encompassing management process handle everything from patient scheduling to payment collection and beyond. Our psychotherapy billing services even begin before you see patients by managing insurance credentialing. We also handle annual payer adjustments and reimbursements, ensuring your practice runs smoothly.
Psychology Billing Has Its Own Challenges
Medical billing and coding are inherently complex, and on top of that, the codes change annually, as do payer requirements and policies. Keeping up with these changes can be overwhelming for anyone in private practice. Below are some common challenges faced by psychology practices in the billing process.
Complicated Rules for Coverage
Some healthcare policies exclude mental health care entirely, while those that do include it have varying policies. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandates that Marketplace plans include mental health and substance use disorder services, but it does not specify the exact coverage requirements. Although mental health services are more widely covered than in the past, the rules regarding therapy can vary, even within the same insurer, from state to state. At Utopia Medical Billing, we stay informed and up-to-date on these complex and ever-changing rules.
Insurance Reimbursement Rates
Mental health treatments are sometimes reimbursed at a lesser rate than short-term medical or surgical operations due to their extensive duration. Utopia Medical Billing handles this by negotiating with payers to receive the highest possible compensation for services performed.
Prior Authorization & EHR Integration
Billing may be a major burden, with procedures such as previous authorizations, insurance billing, and claim management eating up important time. Effective billing systems may considerably improve the productivity of a private practice, allowing therapists to focus on their therapeutic obligations. This is especially challenging for solitary practitioners who spend a large amount of time on things unrelated to patient care. Utopia Medical Billing streamlines this by handling these processes for you and utilizing EHR technologies that simplify billing and clinical notes.
